Particles 2005 is an international conference examining the science, technology, and business aspects of particle surface modification in different application areas including chemical and drug delivery, chemical and biochemical diagnostics, nano and micro encapsulation for stabilization, modification, and controlled release, thin and nanostructured film formation, and advanced materials fabrication. The conference targets practicing scientists and engineers, managers, innovators, and entrepreneurs, and embraces the theme "surface modification for added value and advanced features and material properties."

The conference format comprises a single track of 29 invited papers followed by a panel discussion of challenging issues. Contributed papers will be presented as posters in the two poster sessions. Manuscripts of invited and contributed papers are requested within 30 days of the end of the conference; these will be peer reviewed and published as the conference proceedings.

Due to space limitations, a maximum of 220 conferees can be accommodated, so early registration is highly recommended.

No more rooms available!

Our limited room block at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel at the highly favorable rate of US$139 per night (plus 14% taxes) at single or double occupancy is full. Saturday night, August 13th is sold out! Some nights are still available at this rate, and other nights are more expensive. If you would like on site accomodation, indicate so on your registration form, and we will check for rates and availability, but at this point it would be more expeditious to secure housing directly rather than through the conference office.
